After a long research trip, Carol Drinkwater is back home with her husband, Michel, on their olive farm in the south of France. She’s overjoyed, but also has something serious on her mind: the ecological threats to their own farm—and countless others. The die-off of honey bees has reached crisis levels globally, and Carol is concerned about the state of their hives. Some farmers and scientists believe urgent change is needed to address agricultural techniques that are destroying the planet. But when Carol joins their chorus, it may put their beloved farm in jeopardy. It’s time for a true commitment—but running an organic farm, the couple soon discovers, is not as simple as it sounds . . .
